4 Sri Lankans arrested and charged with ATM card scam.


A case now from our broadcast colleagues in Laem Chabang, 25kms outside of Pattaya which led to the arrest of four Sri Lankan Nationals who were accused of involvement in a massive ATM card scam. The case also involves a local Thai gang here in Pattaya where the database of information relating to magnetic strips of ATM cards was bought from. The suspects decided to withdraw money from the accounts in Laem Chabang rather than Pattaya in an attempt to avoid detection. Police were made aware of large withdrawals from accounts and managed to track the men down to the front of a Bangkok Bank branch in Laem Chabang. They were found to be in possession of 211 blank cards each containing a magnetic strip. They were taken back to their Hotel Room in Pattaya where a computer and memory stick, containing the bank account details and pin numbers relating to each card. Over 700,000 Baht in cash was also seized along with the passports of each suspect. They have been charged with serious fraud and theft charges and will now go to court to explain their actions to a judge.
